PAGES
Use the Mac program Pages for presenting all assessment work Pages is a lot easier to format than word when you are working with lots of images and text.

TOOLBAR SET UP
New > Blank canvas
View > Customise toolbar - get some of the formatting tools you will use the most on your toolbar straight away
Just select and drag them, you might need to drag others off to fit them all, these are the one I like to use, but you can choose your own.
add page, fonts, text, character, list/bullet, shapes, table, mask (crop tool), columns, wrap, front/back, group/ungroup, flip, adjust, style, media, colours
and inspector.

If you cant find a tool on the tool bar try the menus or Inspector, pages does everything word does but tools just look different

Mask is a very helpful tool and will let you crop your images.
